Combating Serious Crimes in Post-Conflict Societies: A Handbook for Policymakers and Practitioners

Combating Serious Crimes in Post-Conflict Societies: A Handbook for Policymakers and Practitioners
Post-conflict societies often suffer from a breakdown of law and order, resulting in varied forms of criminal activity that can have a profoundly destabilizing impact on the society. Drawing on firsthand experience in Afghanistan, Bosnia, Kosovo, Iraq, and elsewhere, Combating Serious Crimes in Post-conflict Societies: A Handbook for Policymakers and Practitioners distills practical, hard-won knowledge into guidance for policymakers and practitioners who are facing the challenge of addressing organized crime and other destabilizing crime in peace and stabilization operations. USIP has also developed a training course based on the book.
